The AUD section from the WHO Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI) was used to assess lifetime AUD symptoms (Robins et al. 1988). These symptoms were used to create an approximate DSM-5 AUD diagnosis based on a cut-off of endorsing two or more symptoms (excluding ‘craving,’ which was not included in this version of the CIDI). About one-third of participants met criteria for AUD (30.5%). The estimated test–retest reliability for this measure of AUD was 0.57 based on κ [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.42–0.71] and 0.63 based on Y (95% CI 0.47–0.79).
